Naughty Machinima Notices

I just want to mention that there has been a server update, which allows for a LOT more free space for uploads, where the drives were getting filled up again recently. This is an entirely new server with, like I said, more hard drive space for many more future uploads of your video creations. I am still having the server optimized, so there may be occasional issues.

Furthermore, I have plans to update the site's aging software so that any reliance on flash will be removed in favor of a full HTML5 solution. This also means that there will be actual HD resolutions available in the video player. The release date on this is when it's finished.

When that is taken care of, I will have more notices on the future plans of Naughty Machinima and how we can all work together keep it a great community as well as future improvements.

One more note:

As far as a membership option without ads, which likely most of you have seen while logged in, this isn't going to be a possibility in its current form. I tried. The gist of it is that credit card companies are very fickle about content, and even though it's all virtual here, there's no explaining that or accepting payments without removing a lot of content on Naughty Machinima. While some things are never allowed here, the vast majority is legal and again, virtual, so I see no problem with it. Either way I can't provide premium memberships through a regular payment processor.

Expect the text about premium options that you see when you're logged in to go away in the near future.

I have some other possible avenues to take on this, but this website will still remain free to view videos as long as it is online.

Recently there was an upgrade to a new server. This was completed mid March. This entire website along with several other sites were transferred over to newer, faster equipment, with updated software and operating system. There is twice as much hard drive space available now, as the drives were getting full from all the uploads. The videos load much more quickly now as well. This new server is almost three times the cost however, and I can only hope that it is sustainable.

The Streaming Mod that allows one to skip ahead in videos before they are finished loading, is not installed. With the videos loading so quickly (and hopefully for most of you as well), I don't know that it's completely necessary. If enough users request it, I will reconsider, although it's not free.
